INTERIOR Where Context Meets Context Text: Ar. Kalpana Bhandari www.spacesnepal.com 62 January-February 2011

INTERIOR A civilization like ours serves as an arboretum of architectural styles. With irregular patterns in settlement and planning, buildings do not share a similar kind of envelope and neither do their interiors. It is interesting to observe how different styles blend, how an expressionists’ artwork meets a vernacular artefact under the same hood; each residence expresses its own story, as if they were a museum housing more than one asset to comfortably accommodate the inhabitants, or be it the visitors. At Chabahil downhill, approximately 200 meters from the approach road of Gaurighat, the architect stands as an opportunist in the design of an abode. Initially designed by Ar. Binayandra Shrestha, the interior design was further taken forward by Ar. Siddartha Gopalan, introducing his creativity to what it has become now. As one enters into the telia tile finished lobby, it bifurcates to a well furnished living room to the left and a floating waiting space to the right January-February 2011 63 www.spacesnepal.com
